Taking Radical Personal Responsiblity

321go • September 20, 2024

It’s just like it sounds.

Taking responsibility in everything you do and then some.

You might think that this might be extreme.

But it’s not.

Let me tell you why.

Who have you seen being extremely successful that always has something to blame? Always having someone or something to blame as to why they aren’t reaching their goals.

The answer is next to none.

Because successful people take CONTROL of what they do on a regular basis. They own all the failures and look at them as opportunities to grow and learn from them.

When you constantly blame some externally for why you can’t do something, you instantly let go of any control which leads to inaction which leads to not reaching your goals.

You have A LOT more control over what is happening in your life then you think and in my area of expertise I talk to a lot of people about taking control over their health and lifestyle habits so they can optimize their well-being that will lead them to be a better version of themselves.

This is where taking radical personal responsibility comes into play.

I challenge you to write down the things that are barriers that are stopping you from reaching your goals(health, professional, family, etc).

Then what I want you to do is write down the things that would guarantee your failure for each of those goals. Sounds backwards right?

Well, the next step following that is to write down what is the OPPOSITE of what would guarantee failure. Which will undoubtedly lead you to the actionable steps that you need to take to reach your goals. Then taking radical personal responsibility to make sure you hold yourself accountable to doing those things on a regular basis no matter what happens. It won’t always be perfect but throwing in the towel should never be an option.

It’s not perfect action that leads to success, it’s consistent action that leads to success. Take radical personal responsibility in your life and you will succeed.

The Pillar of Longevity: Why Strength Training After 40 is Non‑Negotiable

July 6, 2026
Let’s be real for a second... Have you noticed that things just feel a little... different lately? Maybe it’s the way your back feels after a long day at the office. Or maybe you’ve noticed that "middle-age spread" starting to creep in, even though you haven't changed your diet. Perhaps you’ve caught yourself thinking, "I used to be able to do that without even thinking about it." If you’re nodding your head, you’re not alone. We all reach a point where our bodies start sending us reminders that we aren't 22 anymore. But here’s the secret most people miss: those changes don't have to be a downward slide. In fact, you have a superpower at your disposal that can literally slow down, and in some cases, reverse, the clock. 🏋️‍♂️ That superpower? Strength training. After 40, lifting weights isn't just about looking good in a swimsuit (though that’s a nice perk!). It’s about building a body that can handle everything life throws at it for the next 40 years. It’s the literal pillar of longevity.  Let’s dive into why strength training is no longer "optional" once you hit the big 4-0.
